Netflix Games is soon to release Thirsty Suitors, a unique breakup simulator blending narrative adventure with turn-based combat. Currently available on PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, and Steam, this award-winning title (2022 Tribeca Games Awards winner) offers a fresh take on the dating sim genre.
Set in the 1990s, Thirsty Suitors delves into themes of culture, relationships, and self-discovery. Players battle exes using a turn-based RPG system incorporating a mood-based vulnerability mechanic. Beyond combat, the game features skateboarding, allowing players to explore Timber Hills and perform tricks like grinds and wall runs. A key element is cooking South Asian-inspired meals to mend relationships, particularly with the player's mother.
Outerloop Games' Chandana “Eka” Ekanayake will participate in a Games for Change Festival panel (June 27th & 28th) discussing representation in gaming. The panel also includes Matt Korba and Matt Daigle (The Odd Gentlemen), Caitlin Shell (Brandible Games), and Leanne Loombe (Netflix).
Thirsty Suitors will soon be available for free to Netflix subscribers on the App Store and Google Play. For more information and updates, visit the official website or follow Outerloop Games on X (formerly Twitter) and YouTube.
